Social distancing does not mean it’s the end of movie hangouts! We would always use Netflix Party to watch shows and catch our friends’ live reactions to a scene – but what if somehow, one of you couldn’t access it? It’s movie night ruined?
Of course not! There are so many more alternatives than using Netflix Party – plus, even more so if you wanted to watch something out of Netflix as well!
Here are four similar options that can keep you close to your friends, without actually needing to close the distance.
Scener is a Google Chrome extension, where you can use it to watch whatever movie you planned with your friends on Netflix.
You can watch shows together, see who’s online, video chat with your friends even to see their reactions!
Bitmoji is also supported in the app, so if you interact with them through Snapchat, you’ll feel like the app just got better.
The show isn’t on Netflix? Don’t worry, you could stream from other websites too; Watch2Gether is another extension for Google Chrome where you can share content from other platforms like Dailymotion, Youtube, Vimeo, and more – you can even just listen to music on Soundcloud! You can also video chat with your friends while streaming.
There are two options to use this; one is to download the extension on Google Chrome or second, you can go to their website – don’t worry, everything’s free!
All you need to do are these three steps – create a room, share your link, and enjoy!
Planning to just use your phone? Rave is available on both iOS and Android, also the official website even said that you could voice chat with your friends while watching videos on all sorts of platforms!
A little extra that brings the app its name is that you can actually join raves that are available on the app, or you could use their DJ feature where you can host your own rave by mashing up songs together!
You and your friends are in the mood to play video games? There’s no other way to tingle your competitive selves than to beat your friends! Parsec can be used with your computer or laptop and it can do lots of things like watching videos, listening to music, and of course, video games.
With this, everyone gets a chance to play, with interactive game streaming to get the most out of your time together.
